I really didn't intend to turn this thread into discussion of cables — just pointed out that these companies may try to fill a niche where they aren't needed as commercial entities. But since you are asking, safe human-readable addresses are not possible as a concept, unless you are willing to trust a third party. You can make fingerprint verification optional, but users won't use it — check out the minuscule signature / image download ratio of Liberté Linux on SourceForge, for instance. > Also, does Liberté Linux include software for doing mirroring and syncing of > mailboxes with the ease of something like a free software alternative to > Bittorrent Sync? > Also, is there a button in Liberté Linux that lets me access my Cables mail > through a no-javascript web interface by leveraging a Tor hidden service? I think you missed the part where cables is serverless — mailbox is a local concept (which is true in general, and is something that people tend to forget since after webmail became popular). > Since you and I clearly know dark mail alliance won't take the route of > developing these missing pieces around Cables, how would you suggest funding > someone to actually get it done? I will leave those worries to US State dept., or BBG/CIA propaganda branch, or whoever else is apparently behind most of the funding for such projects these days... I just work on whatever interests me personally. -- Maxim Kammerer Liberté Linux: http://dee.su/liberte -- Liberationtech is public & archives are searchable on Google.
